Larry Garner - Once Upon The Blues (2000)

Date: 22 Jul 2010 09:51:48

Well, I have had a while to listen to "once upon the blues" several times now and I am pleased to report that it is an absolute cracker (very good….).
I just love the lazy guitar intro to the first track "where blue turns to black" - lovely understated playing, probably one of my favourite tracks.
The second is about a pet hate of Larry as well as me - "slower traffic keep right". Wherever you are, on Highway, Motorway, Autostrada, Autobahn or Autoroute it seems to be the same the world over - slow traffic sitting in the fast/overtaking lane. Larry will have to change from right to left when he does this number in England!
The third number is a lovely slow old style electric blues number "a real gambling woman". I seem to remember a whole generation of English bands trying to do this sort of thing in the late 1960's/early 1970's such as the original Fleewood Mac with Peter Green and John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, to name but two, - but not as well as this.
Tracks four, "that was her dance" and five, "i won't tell your mama" pick up the pace, but are in the same sort of vein.
Track six, "i ain't the one" is one of those v e r y s l o w numbers that Larry does so well. He excels at telling a story over a slow driving beat - and that guitar break in the middle is just perfect.
The next track "virus blues" is all about Larrys' first experience of the Internet and it doesn't sound too good. The guitar work on this track is nice and simple weaving in and out of the vocals. In fact Larrys' guitar work is maturing just like a fine French wine - Mmmmmmm!
Next up, "edward had a shotgun" is a very topical number about guns and parental responsibility. It is a fast driving number calculated to whip up the crowds in a live performance.
Track nine, "if she tells you no" slows things down again and features the harmonica playing of Seiji Yuguchi, together with more of Larrys' fine guitar.
"the muddy river" has a real "New Orleans" feel to it. I can see Dr. John doing a version of this. Great stuff.
The penultimate track, "klepto" is a reworking of an old Larry favourite "Kleptomaniac" off the "Too Blues" album. Another great number to do live.
Lastly, "nothing but life" is slow monologue with a sparse/economical backing about Larrys' view of the blues. A great late night number and a fine way to round off a fine album.
